In an abrupt turn of events, on August 5, 2024, Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina submitted her resignation due to the protest. It is reported that she has arrived in India, the country where Ms. Hasina and her family sought refuge following a military takeover.
But, this time there was no coup, and as soon as word spread that the prime minister was leaving the nation, demonstrators swarmed her official Dhaka residence. Despite Bangladesh's government's complete internet ban on protesting, students organising under the name Students Against Discrimination started their "Long March to Dhaka" in an attempt to defuse the government's proposed quota. Salimullah Khan, a Bangladeshi writer and academic, will lead the interim government, according to Bangladesh's main political party, the BNP.
The party's representatives were present during the meeting with the Army Chief. Along with Salimullah.
